Nobody thinks that they need to do backups until it’s too late. Maybe
there’s too much work involved in setting up your personalized backup or there

When you want to create a backup, you can pick one of five different types of
backups:

When you create a new backup by either clicking the icon or selecting it from
File -> New Backup Set, a wizard will guide you through the set up
process. You select the type of backup that you would like to create and
then give it a name and brief description on the next screen. The backup
method is also customizable. You can use a full, incremental, or
multi-generation backup.

The next window will allow you to add files or select previous
backups depending on the type of backup you chose to create. You can also
add file masks to exclude some files or to skip hidden files, read-only files,
or system files. Then you are able to select where you would like to store
the backup. You can choose from Local/LAN, FTP, CD/DVD Writer, or some
other removable storage.

PicoBackup also allows you to schedule your backups. You can
set it up to run once, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, at start-up, or at
shut-down. Then you can even compress and encrypt the backup to conserve
space and make the file more manageable and secure. You can modify the
filename that the backup will be saved as. It can include the date and
time to differentiate between backups. Lastly, you can even run external
applications before and/or after the backup is run. Email notification can
be sent to keep you up to date on how your backups are running.

Restoring your data from your backup file is even easier than
backing it up in the first place. Select the restore button at the top of
the application and the restore window will pop up. You can then select
where you would like to restore the backup to and if you would like to overwrite
any existing data.

In conclusion, PicoBackup is an incredibly easy to use and quick
way to create successful backups of all your important data. It allows you
to backup a ton of information on a schedule and to a removable device for the
highest security. I would recommend PicoBackup to anyone who has anything
on their computer that they care about. Backups are the most overlooked
way to protect your data and this program will make it easy for everyone to save
themselves from the fear of hard drive failure.
